On Our Own

Today is Friday. Not a cloud in the pale blue sky. Just a lovely day. Though the sky is clear, and the sun shining, the ground is frozen solid. What were puddles yesterday afternoon are now sheets of ice. A new world.

Stuart headed out for points south, including Death Valley. As he packed up this morning, the dogs started moping. Stuart said, "Georgia's going to have a hard day, we can just tell that's where it's going." Poor Georgia. Being an empath is never easy.

Here's our group pictures, before he left.

Here are sky pictures from today. I wanted to show people the mountains and panoramic views from the house. Perhaps I need a different kind of camera, because the pictures just don't capture it the way it looks.

This is it. We are now officially on our own, in the middle of a new urban/rural area. I have work to do, including the CAMP and HEP grant needs sections, finishing unpacking, cleaning the horses, picking up manure, going to bank and post office, etc. Good to have a list of to-do's, as it is probably a good idea to keep really busy today!
